Faith, family, culture

President Trump’s speech in Warsaw was, beyond a shadow of a doubt, tremendous. What is at stake in our times is much more than a budget, a policy or an election. What is at stake is civilization itself.

[Speaking to the Polish people] Your oppressors tried to break you, but Poland could not be broken. And when the day came on June 2nd, 1979, and one million Poles gathered around Victory Square for their very first Mass with their Polish pope, that day every communist in Warsaw must have known that their oppressive system would soon come crashing down. They must have known it at the exact moment during Pope John Paul II’s sermon when a million Polish men, women, and children suddenly raised their voices in a single prayer. A million Polish people did not ask for wealth. They did not ask for privilege. Instead, one million Poles saying three simple words: “We want God.”

The prerequisite for the success of Western civilization is not material riches. Economic prosperity and military might on their own are not sufficient. The critical leaven is the confidence in core Western values, such things as free speech, the equality of women, respect for individual rights, the rule of law, the affirmation of faith and family. Hence, the fundamental question facing Western nations today is whether the people continue to nurture the cultural self-confidence in those fundamental values. If they do, the West is unbeatable. If those values dissipate, the West is lost. As long as we know our history, we will know how to build our future.

Faith, family, culture, to summarize, these are the keys of who we are. It is no wonder that when Communists move to take over a nation the first thing they do is attack the Church, particularly the Christian Church, next the family and then the culture. With these reduced to silent, impotent rubble the mass of the aimless people are easily controlled by hedonism, lies and indifference. They lose their identity and become willing thralls of their erstwhile benefactors who feed off their ignorance and gullible discontent. Such people are dangerous. Witness:

While we slept the Orcs of the Black Block have multiplied, organized and grown bold. They are using the very same tactics their great grandfathers used eighty years ago to establish Hitler’s Socialist Reich: gangs of thugs brutalize the population and reduce them to helplessness. The very same tactics that Lenin used to cow and paralyze Tsarist Russia. The very same tactics every Socialist has ever used to reduce a society to terrified submission. It is the same thing they are setting up to do here.

And they haven’t even got to the real bloody part yet. Because, don’t cha know, 150 million murdered in the name of the betterment of mankind is just not enough. You just can’t get enough of the benefits of Worker’s Paradise: famine, terror, mass murder and failure, more failure, continuous, humiliating failure. Marx’s Dark Temple can only be sustained by an endless stream of human victims sacrificed on the altar of The Glorious World of Next Tuesday.

Things here in the US haven’t yet gotten to the pass in which Western Europe finds itself. But you can bet your bottom dollar that there are folks working on solving that problem. Black Lives Matter, for one, and we have plenty of Anti-Fa[scist] Fascists eager to bring bloody barbarism to your front door. There are probably two things holding them back. First, nobody likes evil a$$holes, and that is just what these people are. One hopeful sign of the overall health of our culture is that the following the 2015-2016 progressive hissy fit at Mizzou enrolment is down 35%, Melissa Click has been fired and the university is suffering from lack of funding.

Second is the good ol’ 2nd Amendment. Dictators have a hard time winning at King of the Mountain when the population is armed. Which is why the first chapter in “Diktarors for Dummies” is dedicated to disarming the population gun control.

Since it is still a little early to start shooting the question arises, what to do?

Don’t miss an opportunity make a liberal’s head explode by mocking the absurdities of the Party Line. CNN was in embarrassed when some random guy on the internet tweeted a photoshopped video of Donald Trump wrestling a man with a CNN logo over his face. They were furious when Trump re-tweeted it. They were stupid when they tracked the random guy down and not only threatened him, but made that threat public. Now they are desperate because all across the internet people are making videos of CNN logos over people getting punched, cars crashing, things exploding, etc. CNN is toast. They hate mockery, so mock them mercilessly.

Second, expose them. Evil loves the darkness because they know that their deeds can’t stand exposure to the light. Ever notice how Marxism advances it’s agenda by camouflaging itself as something other than what it is? They have to, else they would never get anywhere. Pulling their cover is vitally important as it discredits them and makes them back off until they can find a new lie with which to mask their agenda. It was James O’Keefe’s secret videos which pulled the cover off of CNN’s fake news in the first place. If you haven’t yet seen James’ work go over to his Project Veritas site and have a look, and donate. This man is invaluable.

Like all soldiers in war, we are called to bend every effort to destroy the enemies of our civilization because they are bent on destroying us, and all we love. Here’s a few lines from Macaulay’s Lays of Ancient Rome (with apologies):
